rest is pass on clear as the information regarding his whereabouts find out more on our team. russia has its sights on reaching an arctic agreement with canada caught on the heels of signing a demarcation with norm. a u.s. senate panel prepares to give its verdict on the stock. treaty head of a crucial vote by the full senate to ratify the nuclear deal. live from the center of moscow this is welcome to the program one of russia's most wanted terrorist suspects is said to have entered poland despite the country's threat. a rival. thought to be attending an international chechen congress near

warsaw now he currently lives in britain where he has political asylum. is following the latest developments. at the moment it's all very confusing and very unclear because even the information regarding this was a private where about specifically his arrival in poland is so far being brought to us only by one news source that's a television channel a polish t.v. channel and they're citing unnamed sources so even his whereabouts are at this moment unconfirmed and the very fact that polish authorities would say in advance that they would arrest the man should here arrive in its territory is somewhat confusing as well because it is not unknown for law enforcement agencies to give their suspect a warning of an imminent to arrest so this could just be yet another pocketing statement towards russia that they will arrest the man should he arrives because of course there is an outstanding interpol arrest warrant for an issue for me it's

a cry of he's wanted by russia on a number of different charges but even of the process even if they do detain him the process is a very complicated one the prosecution can't exactly lead on the police and make him detain the man and even if they do after an initial period of detention a polish court will then have to decide whether there are grounds for further detaining misters archive and of course the entire matter of his extradition to russia has to be decided by yet another country the united kingdom which has granted him political asylum in two thousand and three it is very unlikely that us not by a will be facing trial in russia any time soon of course he has been granted political asylum in the united kingdom seven years ago and since then russia has repeatedly asked to be it's a british colleagues to hand the man over to extradite him so that he could stand trial here in russia of course he faces charges of homicide kidnapping extortion

and various such terrorists and extremists happy to vittie so a large number of crimes that he's accused of and yet the united kingdom insists that this is a client is a political refugee. he has remained a law abiding citizen on its territory and therefore the agreement that russia and the united kingdom have between them to share extradite all those accused of various crimes on each other's territories that agreement does not stand because of course he has been granted political asylum so the question of his standing trial in russia is a very likely one even if he is detained in poland and then later sent back to the united kingdom. is not about well john locke learned from the institute of democracy and co-operation in powers says that if poland. this will be a considerable step forward in prosecuting terrorists auspex. i think there's no doubt that if poland were to descend him it would be an enormous breakthrough for russia certainly in the fight against terrorism but more generally in its new.

political friendship with its neighbors we've seen over the last year and a half big turnaround in western foreign policy towards russia it's very important to understand that there is a link between the caucasus and between russia's enemies in central and eastern europe there are links between the people from the north caucasus from the baltic states and we can see that the world chechen congress itself is being held in poland so the caucasus has always been a geopolitical lever which russia's enemies have used to to basically undermine russia and if as i say poland were to abandon that policy by arresting zachariah if something which would presumably finish off the world chechen congress or at least this meeting of it that would be an extraordinarily important and symbolic step.

russia and canada are neck and neck in a race for the arctic so rich resources or to work is challenging moscow's claims to a portion of the polish seabird but russia says it won't give up you've got a piece going off has more on this northern dispute. both russia and canada remained firm at their stances claiming that part of the arctic seabed known as the a woman also fridge belongs to bear to authorities moscow says that its claims are based on scientific fact and according to the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov russia will continue sending expeditions to this area in order to gather enough scientific proof for the international community to recognize the us off the russian land mass so you could have the limo and also the woman also a bridge was discovered by russian explorers but today we want to prove scientifically that it's a continuation of our marine life in providing our data to the un as canada and now denmark is also thinking about leaving clean to the woman also of ridge but any

such claim must be based upon scientific data provided to the un commission and do you have the last word in any case in two thousand and seven a group of russian scientists a descendant on to be a woman also fridge studied and found concrete conclusions that it is a continuation of the russian land mass the beginning of planted a russian flag there and then moscow has filed a request to the united nations asking the international community to recognize this area as part of its to tell you but the united nations has asked for more sane to fake evidence meanwhile canada has also filed claims on this state are you saying back to the a woman also for h. is part of the canadian de joria we will submit our data on the loan is awfully age and we're confident that our case will prevail by scientific evidence the arctic is a huge area and currently doesn't belong to any country but at the same time it's

thought to hold up to twenty percent of the world's on tap to resources of gas and oil which makes it quite an attractive area. for many countries apart from russia and canada other states are also keen to stablish themselves in the octaves and they include the united states denmark and norway according to some analysts this me lead to some type of all over conflict because this is the stakes are really high because of these extremely large reserves of natural resources and this me lead to some sort of problem an international problem on the other hand other analysts this thing from back to this issue will be resolved peacefully in fact just now during the meeting in moscow the foreign minister is off russia and canada have pledged to resolve the stage or dispute strictly diplomatically and

scientifically and there is already an example of how such a dispute could be resolved peacefully just recently russia and norway resolved a decades along a territorial dispute on their borders in the bar and sea and now we've agreed first of all to establish the border and also to share the natural resources which are held in that area so hopefully that will be done in the in the case of russia and canada as well. if you go to is going off reporting well coming up later in the hour join our close up team as we explore russia as far east and the wonders of. ducks in between the russian mainland japan and the succulent island is the island of minute on named after french seafarer who discovered it it is described as the right of the sakhalin region we'll take a look what's in store for us here. in moscow hopes the u.s.

is getting a step closer to ratifying the latest nuclear arms reduction agreement the senate foreign relations committee is holding new hearings on the start treaty before submitting it to the full senate for final approval under the agreement both countries will cut their nuclear arsenals by a third russian lawmakers are ready to ratify the document but want to sign off at the same time as washington the head of russia's state duma foreign affairs committee spoke about the main reasons preventing the us from getting started quicker. the major problem is the. process in the states. election campaign one sort of the seventh is to be reelected which means that many senators consider this situation not in terms of where the agreement is good or bad for the united states but in terms of. make contribute to their own electoral compete and it's a bit because the document itself is too much important for the national interest

of the united states for the national interest of russia for the global national interest to be mixed up with. our colleagues in the senate intend to supply the certification law complimentary interpretation statement and this of course makes this situation a little bit they believe that in case it happens we on the russian side will have to come back to the sea again analyze the statement. it's probably to be approved by the committee of the senate and in case it will be needed do something similar so we have many or are no defectors and i hope that we will be able to ratify the treaty by a literally on both sides by the end of this year this is the most realistic date. it's just not on eleven minutes past the hour here in the russian capital this is r.t. and british special forces are undergoing their biggest cuts since the second world

war the country's ministry of defense says it needs to downsize the special service after having its budget slashed and while the decision may help the government save a few pennies critics say the true cost of axing what is a global asset could spell disaster arteries reports. weld renowned elite notoriously camera shy these are britain's special forces at work in afghanistan they're seen as one of the greatest assets the u.k.'s army has to offer but even they aren't immune from government cuts the ministry of defense is being forced to save between ten and twenty percent of its budget for the s.a.'s that will mean getting rid of those too old for combat duty and axing one of its part time battalions paxman used to be in the s.a.'s and now help servicemen to overcome post-traumatic stress disorder he wonders what will happen to men who've

spent their lives in extreme situations and my concern would be the vast numbers of going in there are going to be out of work that have been in the military environment. combat environment hostile environment for a number of years all of the shopping they go for themselves with a skill set that they can't use in the civilian community pretty hard fought for the fact that they're out of a job some say the decision to axe old soldiers is a false economy they're the ones with the know how and in valuable experience but needs must and as the u.k.'s economy shrinks so difficult decisions have to be made and economists are urging a proper look at what the u.k.'s defense needs actually are rather than just last paying off a bit here and there i don't think that sort of slicing approach is really going to work i think what you really need to ask is. what all britain's military needs going to be over the next ten twenty thirty years in so far as we can predict them and then design your own forces to actually accommodate those strategic concerns

over them just trying to save on paper clips and stationary u.k. special forces have been active in all the major conflicts in recent years iraq kosovo east timor and now afghanistan where nine and a half thousand british troops are currently deployed but the question is whether the british army will be able to play a peacekeeping or military roles in foreign conflicts in the future and that at the same time it's rising economic powers are increasing their military forces that's going to create some there ever since from a period in which nato countries. but also west european countries enjoy a certain technological superiority. not just discomfort defense cuts ultimately main european countries will be increasingly dependent on multilateral alliances to ensure their national security defense review is currently underway with results to be published in the late what insiders hoped for

is a wide reaching decision on the u.k.'s defense priorities what some are afraid they're going to get is paper shuffling and useless cutbacks in britain's already overstretched job forces. u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton is meeting the palestinian president mahmoud abbas after the latest round of middle east peace talks in egypt and jerusalem where israeli and palestinian leaders held two days of direct negotiations although no breakthrough emerged president. quit the talks if an israeli ban on settlement building in the west bank is not renewed israeli israel rather completely rules this out despite this u.s. official saying progress is being made during the talks israeli warplanes conducted two raids in gaza following. palestinian rocket and mortar attacks. political advisor for have told r.t. that the palestinians don't expect the talks to hold any results but we figured out

that all these talks is another way of deception saving the americans the. regional powers the things that i give you that is there is this is something legitimate and i want people actually doing these things from time to time as a change to the israelis. against the people of gaza has no war and it doesn't. change. so. these kind of talks because we don't believe these talks will lead to something significant in that he had a future. with r.t. and live from moscow and once again our close up team has hit the road to bring you the very best of russia.

and today we take you to russia's far east and the country's biggest island. now for many years it was at the center of a route between moscow and tokyo because of its rich oil and gas resources today saleen is one of russia's most developed regions and has press taking landscapes and rich flora and fauna are still a largely unspoiled by tourists. discovered. ati's russia closeout team is back and this time we're seven thousand kilometers from the russian capital moscow in the russian far east in the island of sakala and this is the socket in region indeed one of the most prosperous in in russia located around four hundred kilometers from the russian mainland and separated from the russian mainland by the top two are straight it is quite a big island one thousand kilometers from north to south and about three hundred fifty kilometers from west to east it represents a new region a very rich in terms of biological resources now the island of cycling that's home

a boost said this was an exception rather than the rule and xander told us of the biggest highlight of his three years of service here. we identified a vessel belonging to poachers we asked them to stop and fired flairs they didn't reply so after an hour we had to open fire after about twenty minutes they stopped probably being too scared of a suiting at them that was one wild chase oleksandr came here from the other side of russia and despite nonstop action and hard work he enjoys his time here that is because he projects natural beauty from human harm the beauty which is visible from the very first glance. tucked in between the russian mainland japan and the circling island is the island of minute on named after french seafarer who discovered it it is described as the pride of the sakhalin region we'll take a look what's in store for us here.
